Zhao Ming also agreed with Zhang Kai's words and felt that the probability was almost the same as the truth.
"By the way, Lao Sun, you make one more trip... Forget it, let a brother who is trustworthy and clever take another trip with hundreds of brothers."
After saying that, Zhao Ming immediately wrote another letter asking for credit.
This set of operations made Lao Suntou feel numb.
The petition for merit has already been written before the fight has started?
After handing the application letter to Lao Suntou, Zhao Ming smiled and said,
"We can take advantage of us every day, and I estimate that no matter how slow the reaction of the Qingyan Banner Leader is, we will continue to inflict heavy losses on the opponent.
An old fox who is so afraid of death will definitely not be able to sit still. "
In this regard, Zhao Ming felt that it would be delayed for at most ten days. No matter how the situation changed within ten days, the Qiyan Banner Leader would still be determined to retreat despite all opinions.
With Zhang Li's urine, it was difficult for Zhao Ming to guarantee that once the matter was completely resolved, the other party would not allocate funds directly.
After all, the meat is in the mouth. Since the favor has been given, it is time to implement majestic measures.
As for this letter, Zhao Ming's military exploits are very vague, including killing thousands of enemies, rescuing nearly 10,000 herdsmen, and countless cattle and sheep.
Anyway, the two are hundreds of kilometers apart, so it is impossible to verify them as soon as possible.
As for whether Zhang Li would be suspicious and not allocate funds, Zhao Ming was not worried.
Zhang Li is different from the leader of the Qiyan Banner. The other party is Yan Laoxi's style.
People can invest hundreds of thousands of dollars and hollow out a mansion for a treasure from the previous dynasty that they don't know the specific truth.
This shows that these people are very greedy for money, and all greedy people have one thing in common, that is, once there are sunk costs, they will not stop easily before seeing huge profits.
This is like a gambler who loses his money. He has simply lost so much, so why not continue?
Maybe we can make a comeback next time!
In fact, Zhao Ming was also betting that the other party would not be able to play the card table easily, and that the other party would also covet greater results.
Ordinary military exploits are no longer that important to officials in a province like Zhang Li.
Even Zhao Ming's previous military exploits, although they may be big or small, are nothing.
Zhang Li just wanted to share as much wealth as possible with his confidants.
But if there is a greater result, not to mention completely swallowing this Outer Mongolian army, it is just to defeat and drive out this entire Outer Mongolian army.
This is still of great benefit to Zhang Li at this level. It is a little difficult to move up, but his achievements will definitely continue to add to his achievements.
This kind of meritorious service does not usually show up, but if something happens, this kind of meritorious service can offset the disaster.
At night, the former site of Yuanping Qiantun is located.
Different from the desolation some time ago, this camp has been rebuilt recently, and it is brightly lit and densely populated with a large number of Outer Mongolian soldiers.
Considering the disastrous defeat experience of Ba'alin and Baalhu last time, they will reduce the intensity of patrolling outside the night, and at the same time strengthen the patrolling and vigilance within six or seven miles of the camp.
But now the Noyan tribe and three banner leaders who are closely related to the Noyan tribe are stationed here, with a total force of eight thousand.
In addition, they personally coerced many herdsman captives to form a coercion army of 3,000 people.
With tens of thousands of troops, Aqqin, the leader of the Nuoyan tribe, was in the limelight for a while. Although he still obeyed the orders of the leader of the Qiyan tribe, anyone with a discerning eye knew that there were many gaps between the two.
This is normal. Akqin is in his prime and full of energy. It is the year when he should fight. In addition, he has been victorious in recent battles, which only fuels his arrogance.
In my heart, I became increasingly dissatisfied with the prudent thinking of the Qiyan Banner Leader.
That is to say, this is not ancient times, otherwise he would have said less about a wave of military rebellion.
And while they were drinking and chatting happily in the camp, laughing and joking, while Baalhu, Baalin and other tribes were weak and weak, the voice of a scout suddenly sounded outside.
"Sir! We found signs of a large group of enemy cavalry moving from the west. It is suspected that the regular army from Huo Zhongtun is moving tonight!"
After hearing this, there was a moment of silence in the camp, but it soon became boiling.
"They actually want to attack at night again?"
"You are just looking for death. Do you really think we are that good-for-nothing He Yan? Sir, if you just say a word, the brothers will pick up the guy and do it!"
Listening to this, Aqin thought carefully for a moment, but he didn't take it seriously at all.
It's not that they can't do night attacks, they just worry about the other party's artillery.
But since the other party is going to die, don't blame them for being rude.
Artillery is very bulky, and it is simply wishful thinking to pull it out for encounters.
Soon Akchin ordered a banner with nearly 3,000 troops to move out, and at the same time ordered a banner to be nearby to provide support at any time.
A night battle was almost carried out in a very tacit understanding.
From one o'clock in the morning, the two sides continued to fight back and forth, and in the middle, they attacked back and forth and retreated in circuitous ways.
Logically speaking, a cavalry confrontation cannot last too long, but in this battle, the two sides fought directly from one o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the morning.
It wasn't until the sun's rays of light showed that the two flag masters under Akqin realized that the other party was really determined to retreat this time.
Although they had some doubts, both of them couldn't help but smile from the bottom of their hearts.
"Haha! Brother Akchin, brothers, I have not embarrassed you. The formation cannot kill hundreds of people, and our battle losses are only half of theirs.
They also captured many of them. "
As soon as they returned to the camp, the two flag owners couldn't help laughing.
Although the fight lasted all night, it was really enjoyable, and there was even a sense of satisfaction that I was slightly better than my opponent.
But after hearing this, Akqin didn't look very good.
"Brother Aqin, what happened?" Seeing this, the two realized that something was wrong and asked hurriedly.
"Two idiots! Haven't you realized the problem yet?"
Akqin couldn't help but cursed.
"Brother, what happened?" The two of them were even more confused.
We fought desperately outside, spent the whole night, and gave each other a heavy blow. How dare you not praise us and still make sarcastic comments here?
But they didn't dare to question him at this time, because Akqin's face was as black as a pot of coal.
"Where did you kill yesterday? How many enemies were there?"
"this...."
After being asked this question, the two began to recall carefully.
It was a night battle, and their field of vision was limited. It was hard to say how many enemies there were, but recalling the opponent's shouts of killing last night, it was estimated that there were at least five or six thousand people.
"There may have been five to six thousand people. As for where they went... We chased the enemy all the way. It was too dark at night and we were not sure where we ended up.
But we remember that we should have run to the south. "
